THE GREAT FIRE.

The burning Of the Hotel Del Monte at
Monterey is as grievous loss to the State
as it is financial loss to the owners of
that property. The great hotel and its
beautiful grounds had attained a world
wide fame. In many respects the State
was best known by relation to this magnif-
cent property; that is to say, thousands
have been attracted to the State primarily
by the natural and artificial beauties of
the spot and its climatic equability and
health-inspiring influences. There was
unquestionably no house of public enter
tainment upon the continent at once so
charming in its location, more admirable
in its appointments, or anywhere so near
:" the perfect" in the adorment of its
grounds, their landscape charms and all
the varied surroundings that go to make
up restful, inspiring and healthful re-
sort. The news is received with universal
satisfaction that the hotel will be rebuilt
Immediately, and with such speed as will
surprise the people. 1t is to be hoped that
the owners will not, in rebuilding, depart
from the general character of the original
architecture of the structure. 1t was so
admirably adapted to its surrounding, had
won so large place in public regard, adj
dressed so forcibly the cultivated taste,
and was in all respects so fit, that..any very
different building upon the site of the old
one would seem almost like PROCLAMATION
of art.

with his homestead, which only consisted of
eighty acres, and he had TO wait something
like eighteen months after he had proved up

anxiety in this matter was that, after he had
paid for the land and before he had received
his patent, he had allowed the assessor to put
a valuation on the land for taxes, and II his
claim was Cancelled he thought they might

Love does not always heal with balm;
The surgeons knife some apguished wounds
must hare
For oft their poison bslks the tenderN.st cars
That lies within tine touch Of pitys palm.
Who keeps for love q sweet unbrosen calm,
Like breath of some noritiates cloistered
prayer,
Nor brooks the storm that frets the tranquil
air,
And sends a discori quavering through its pssm
Belittles love. That love is tru.st, hest
Which bravely learns TO face all bitter things,
And yet in answering wisdom's high hehest
Forgets word OF its sweet uttrrings;
And even as perforce II wields the knife
Recalls with its fonds kiss 10 stronger life.

remarkable place for the study of physiog-
noris one uf the queer things about it Is
the singular disposition that greatness has to
duplicate itself in the features of different
men Every little whilo the observer will
notice two men together who can hardly lie
distinguished apart, and he will be disposed to
ask himself if congress is made up Of twins.
Here, for instance. YOU meet Congressman
Rockwell, Of Massachusetts, and Charles
Towle the correspondent Of The Boston
Traveller Rockwell is often mistaken for
Towle and Towle for Rockwell. They do not
look alike but have the same color of eyes,
the same contour of features and both
wear glasses. The resemblance does
not end here. II YOU shut your eyes
and hear them talk you cannot tell which is
speaking. their vol ,es sound so much alike.
Looking down from the galleries you may see
two large handsome men sitting side by side
down in the first tier of seats on the Repub-
